Message: <blockquote data-quote="[PIMPIN]" data-source="post: 1063554170" data-attributes="member: 2994">Most important hard infrastructure for the Malaysian passenger car industry (in 2020)- The road infrastructure provides sufficient capacities for mainland transportation within the peninsular (e.g., highways, especially the North-South Expressway), and its JIT capacities optimised- The Government of Malaysia implemented a multi-modal transportation system which integrates public and individual (passenger car) transportation.- Other better options: _____Don't forget to take into account the public transportation network infrastructure by then especially the extended MRT services. Also, might want to look at highway concessionaires and see what highways would have expired or be close to expiring by then. Not sure if there will be but no harm. I think rail network such as the double tracking will also affect passenger automotive market. If people commute from Seremban to KL daily for work on Kommuter or whatever then surely with better railway network and faster trains, the number of people driving to work would surely decrease.Another thing to consider is the possibility of Proton merging with a foreign partner like the previously much anticipated Volkswagen deal and the amount of technology transfer that will occur. Obviously merging with such a huge manufacturer would mean lower costs of production, access to knowledge, access to inventory (you know how small parts are used across many different makes that belong to the same company like interior switches, etc). This in turn will build the Proton brand and who knows in 10 years we may see Passat based replacements for Perdana, effectively stealing market share away from Toyota Camry, Honda Accord and other alternatives.Most important soft infrastructure for the Malaysian passenger car industry (in 2020)- Numerous universities and several technical education initiatives provide sufficient high-technology engineering capabilities for the automotive industry in Malaysia.- The Government of Malaysia uses high incentives to attract foreign know-how (not only for automotive core technologies but also for manufacturing processes).- Other better options: _____Another point worth mentioning is the education sector (soft infrastructure as your professor calls it) which now has places like TOC. This may increase in future with actual companies setting up their respective colleges as well as an increase in the number of government/public technical colleges, etc. As it is, we produce a massive amount of students graduating in nursing yearly since there will soon be a worldwide shortage. That's largely driven by the private colleges so surely there are companies in the private sector who see an opening for automotive based courses that have more value added content in its syllabus rather than the typical local garage mechanic. Interest in producing more automotive engineers and others related to the industry can also be a direct result of Malaysian involvement in F1 as well. So although not entirely related to passenger automotive, the push in terms of soft infrastructure could come from motorsports side as well.</blockquote>
